    Autobahn Power

    Now this should be enough to satisfy even George

    http://www.leftlanenews.com/2006/06/...power-audi-q7/

    275 hp and 443 pound-feet from the 3.0TDI, might work for you George. But then, the 580hp and 530 pound-feet would be even better. :trash: And 530lb/ft would still be under the torque limit of the tranny so shouldn't have any problems.

    So why not go that route? Sounds the better way to go over the "normal" V8 FSI, no?

    well, I did - at the end. As the order was configurable (still) couple of weeks ago I changed it to TDI - as a matter of fact I felt like a women (not to star a pissing contest here with some fine members we have ...) but I originally had TDI configured, had a change of heart and got it changed to FSI and, after some extensive thinking went back to TDI ...

    Dealer handled that very well ..... so, here we are. Now I need to get it delivered before I can for MTM.

    Glad you were able to make up your mind.

    BTW, I noticed Nothelle does not sell it's 583Nm kit for the 3.0TDI with particulate filters, only for those without (i.e. not as clean). They do have the 550Nm available with the 3.0TDI with the particulate filter, so maybe this is why MTM offers 550Nm as a cap for the 3.0 TDI Q7 as I think all the Q7s will have the filter, no?
